System For Recognizing and Responding to Environmental Noises

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining that the non-conversational noise is within a threshold of similarity to the previously identified non-conversational noise.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the category of noise comprises an alarm.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the non-conversational noise has no meaning within a selected vocabulary or dictionary.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the second device is physically proximate to the first device.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the second device is remote from the first device.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the second device is associated with an emergency responder.

10. The method of claim 1, further comprising transmitting at least a portion of the first signal over a network to the second device.

12. The device of claim 11, wherein the second non-conversational noise is a siren.

13. The device of claim 11, wherein the acts further comprise causing the one or more communication interfaces to transmit at least a portion of the audio signal.

17. The non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 16, wherein the second non-conversational noise is representative of an alarm and the second device is associated with an emergency responder.

18. The non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 16, wherein the acts further comprise detecting a match between the first non-conversational noise and the previously identified first non-conversational noise based at least in part on similarity of characteristics of the first non-conversational noise and characteristics of a stored sound pattern template associated with the previously identified non-conversational noise.

19. The non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 16, wherein the first non-conversational noise and the previously identified non-conversational noise have no meaning within a selected vocabulary or dictionary.

20. The non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 16, wherein the acts further comprise transmitting data to a third device, the data to cause the third device to perform one or more actions as a response to the detecting the first non-conversational noise and wherein the third device is associated with an emergency responder and the second device is associated with a user of the first device.
